FTA:

  The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said on  Sunday that laboratory experts re-reviewed sample results  in the Taylor Farms  cyclospora investigation and concluded the finding  should be considered  a  false  positive.

  As of Sunday, there were no  confirmed positive sample results for cyclospora, the FDA  added.

Sadly, this Soviet attitude of complete cynicism and disbelief of any and all official sources due to corruption and incompetence is going to become more widespread and mainstream.

The USA is speed running a destruction of trust in public institutions, supported by two thirds of the electorate and a majority of large American tech firms.

Somehow, inexplicably, people seem to think this will all go back to normal when Trump leaves office.

This has so little to do with Trump. Trump is a symptom of the disease, not the cause. Forces (not least of which is the state itself) have been at work in america chipping away at public institutional trust for at least 60-70 years.

This is what happens when the easiest way to achieve power is by spreading FUD and not really caring about the actual task of governing.

We're just speed running it now.

They notified about contamination first, FDA was late to the party. They did not needed to clear check or do anything if they wanted to hide issues.

Trump is the result in that breakdown of trust, not the cause. We have the best Congress money can buy, and the bureaucracy spends its time, and our money, playing kingmaker. Why would anyone trust public institutions?
